User Reviews

Childcare.co.uk offers a useful platform for childcare job seekers and parents, with valuable additional resources. However, many users criticize the high cost of messaging features locked behind a Gold membership. The app suffers from stability and notification issues, usability problems including inaccurate location data and accessibility concerns, and limited customer support for subscription management. While effective in some regions with positive job outcomes, the app's financial and technical drawbacks frustrate many users.

Pros

Provides a platform for finding childcare jobs and clients, beneficial for both nannies and parents.
Offers additional resources such as CPD courses, insurance, forms, and webinars to support childcarers.
Generally easy to use with an organized and informative interface.
Considered cost-effective compared to traditional agencies by some users.
Facilitates multiple job opportunities in certain locations.

Cons

Messaging and contact features require expensive Gold membership (£24-25/month), limiting free communication.
App stability issues including frequent crashes and the need to sign in repeatedly.
Poor notification system: users often miss messages due to sign-outs or app bugs, and notification settings do not always function correctly.
User interface and usability problems such as inaccurate distance information, slow performance, and accessibility limitations (small font, no enlargement options).
Difficulty canceling subscription and lack of transparent billing, with automatic direct debit payments and poor customer service responsiveness.

Recent reviews

Lots of fake profiles. Won't let me upload a photo or take a picture hence won't complete my profile. Ive wasted so much time trying to get it to work but no avail.

I've been a member for years and have not gotten a job once. I have had many multiple parents contact me but unfortunately are not able to get through to be because I'm not a 'Gold Member' and nor can i message them. 24 pounds a month! Which is neither helpful for me nor the parents who need childcare. What's the point of the app then if neither hosts can contact each other. Terrible.
